Installing the RF receiver
– Make sure that the receiver and cables are fitted at an adequate
distance from mechanically moving vehicle components, e.g. steering
column or brake, clutch and accelerator pedal, in order to avoid damage
to the cable or receiver by crushing or rubbing.
– If you decide to install the radio receiver behind panelling, make sure that
you are able to refit the panel afterwards.
– When securing the RF receiver with screws or bolts, make sure not to
damage any other parts of the vehicle.
Laying the cables
Malfunction or damage to components is repeatedly caused by cables not
being laid or connected properly. Correct laying and connection of cables is
essential for long-term, fault-free functioning of retrofit components.
Please note the following points:
– Always lay cables in such a way that they cannot be damaged. Never
lay them for example over sharp edges or next to hot or moving parts.
– Lay cables alongside original cable looms and connect them as frequently
as possible with insulating tape or cable binders.
– If cables have to be laid from the vehicle interior into the engine or
luggage compartment, use the existing cable passages through the
bulkheads.
– Only connect the cables using proper methods. See the four following
examples.
– Example 1: Connecting cable to original cable.
Strip 10 mm of insulation off original cable
Strip 15 mm of insulation off cable to be connected
Wind cable to be connected round original cable and solder
Insulate cable with insulating tape
– Example 2: 2 Connecting 2 cables together.
Strip insulation off both cables
(see ✎ G ➀).
Pull approx. 20 mm of heat shrinkable tube over one cable
(see ✎ G ➁).
Wind both cables together and solder
Pull heat shrinkable tube over solder connection and warm gently
(see✎ G ➃).
